about me
I'm a high-functioning geek. I can survive cocktail parties and other social functions unscathed and without letting on that I surreptitiously yanked all the hosts mp3s onto my phone while making idle chat.

Really, I'm just completing the trifecta of LiveJournal, MySpace and Tribe, since we've now evolved to the point where we're too cool for email.

It just doesn't seem like a receptive audience to what is essentially legislated bigotry.

I think one of my co-workers summed this up best: "It’s like playing some sort of horrible nightmare version of Myst."
Yesterday evening I had an jarring reminder about the importance of mindfulness, and the pitfall of passivity. After a four-year hiatus of motorcycle riding, a close friend who I taught to ride a decade back decided I needed to get back into the sport. He's in the process of moving and asked me to "hang onto" his bike for a few weeks so he wouldn't have to deal with it - a clear wink-wink, nudge-nudge attempt to get me hooked again. As if the intent wasn't overt enough, he started sending me ...

... visited an ecological disaster area, got yelled at by an irate old man at a rest area, crawled under a man-made mountain of hay, car parts and paint, stood atop an active hydrogen sulfide mud pot, wandered through abandoned buildings, and witnessed first hand what century of exposure to alkali salt storms can do to a town.

So, it's 5 AM and I'm processing pictures instead of sleeping. I think that officially makes me a junkie. Just starting to learn how to make proper use of the new flash, but wow it makes a huge difference in situations like this.
